Il cacciatore della luna piena

It's far from good. But i don't regret watching it. Never had a clue as to who the werewolf is/was.

There are far worse movies with higher ratings out there.

Look - American Werewolf in London this isn't. But then, I didn't expect it to be. What it IS, however, is a decent enough stab at a werewolf flick. Sure, there were a few of the standard tropes, but if you just sit back with a metaphorical box of popcorn, you won't have a terrible time. Just don't go in expecting this multi-million, CGI'd to death show. It's not that, not trying to BE that. So why compare it, knowing already that you'll be disappointed.

When I sat down to watch the 2020 horror movie "Hunter's Moon", it was because of two things. First, this movie had Thomas Jane on the cast list, and second, it was a horror movie that I hadn't already seen. Sure, I had never even heard about this movie from writer and director Michael Caissie, but I am a sucker for werewolf movies. So of course I opted to sit down and watch it, as I stumbled upon it here in 2022.

The storyline, as written by Michael Caissie, did have some good aspects to it. But overall, then "Hunter's Moon" was not a particularly great or outstanding foray into the werewolf movie sub-genre. Yeah, it was watchable, but it was somewhat bland and generic.

The special effects in "Hunter's Moon" were limited. And the one and only time you get to actually see a werewolf up close and in detail, you just curl up your toes, because it looks atrociously bad. It was so obviously a suit and a mask with no articulation, much less anything that even resembled life in the details.

The acting performances in the movie were fairly wooden and rigid. Sure, it was fun to watch Thomas Jane and Sean Patrick Flanery in the movie, but neither of them had leading roles.

If you enjoy werewolf movies, then perhaps give "Hunter's Moon" a chance. But don't go expecting much of anything.

My rating of "Hunter's Moon" lands on a three out of ten stars.

Well, they tried. Yeh, that pretty much sums it up.

When I saw a clip of this movie I thought it looked decent enough. It gave the impression of a group of people holed up in a house under attack by werewolves. Unfortunately that's not what it is! What we have here is some very low budget, woefully acted, poorly written mess of a movie. Avoid. If you want a movie like that which I originally thought this was then instead check out Dog Soldiers to see it done properly.
